Getting to CPKC
KC Current and CPKC Stadium have partnered with KC Streetcar to add additional streetcars and extend operating hours to the existing KC Streetcar schedule during KC Current home matches.
The Riverfront streetcar stop makes CPKC Stadium the most accessible stadium in Kansas City. Fans also now have even greater flexibility, with the ability to park anywhere along the streetcar line and ride directly to the stadium.
Heading to a match, fans can board the streetcar at any of the 17 north-bound stops from the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) heading towards the Riverfront. The Riverfront stop provides direct, free, and accessible transportation to CPKC Stadium, Current Landing, Riverfront Park and Founder’s Park. Click HERE for the full KC Streetcar route.
The Riverfront streetcar stop is less than a five-minute walk to CPKC Stadium. Fans can disembark the streetcar and walk east toward CPKC Stadium.
Streetcar Hours of Operation:
- Sunday – Thursday: 5:00 a.m. – Midnight
- Friday: 5:00 a.m. – 1:00 a.m.

Please note that parts of the Riverfront Heritage Trail will be CLOSED for the Current’s May 30 match due to ongoing developments around Current Landing. River Gate will remain CLOSED for this match, resulting in an alternate location for CPKC Stadium’s complimentary Bike Valet on the North side of Current Landing.
